"It's really odd, to be honest I had no idea how I start this. So I'll come out and say it.
"This is going to be my last six weeks on Capital.
"Which is a weird thing to say."
He continued: "What I can tell you is I’m not saying goodbye right now.
"I’m not leaving the show today and that’s it, but it’s not far away.
"It will come and that goodbye will come in five to six weeks.
I know that it started out as me being just Martin Kemp’s son, I hope that now you can call me your friend.

"Capital is my family, you as the wonderful listeners that you’ve been, you’ve been with me at my best times and my absolute lowest.
"I know that it started out as me being just Martin Kemp’s son, I hope that now you can call me your friend."
